There was a barren area in the northwestern corner of Wissen Town, and many soldiers and adventurers had set up their tents there. Whenever they had no missions to occupy them, the energetic troops would drink and fight with each other, or perhaps find a few prostitutes to quell their lust.

Often, in the dead of night, when the ordinary townspeople were already fast asleep, this place in the northwestern corner of the town would still be in a rowdy mood. Sounds of gambling, each wave louder than the next. Sounds of brawls and shouts, as well as the shrill moans of the ladies The sounds would continue through the night.

Even though they were unhappy about the foreign troops and adventurers, the townspeople did not dare speak up against them. They were already thankful that these troops did not bully them. How would the townspeople dare to find trouble with them!

Waking up, Sangdela stretched and violently shook the naked lady beside him. He had encountered a beautiful girl yesterday night while he was hunting, and he had pulled her to the side of a cliff with the intention of violating her. But he hadnt expected that the fiery girl to choose to throw herself off the cliff rather than submit to him.

When he returned to the outpost, Sangdela was overcome by lust. He felt that the situation was unjust, and he hired a prostitute to quell his frustrations. He toyed with the prostitute for two hours, torturing her to no end.

Sir, I cannot carry on any longer, please spare me! Seeing Sangdela raise the whip in his hand, the prostitute turned pale in shock. If she had known that Sangdela was this perverted, she would not have accepted this business no matter how much money she was paid.

Striking down with the whip, Sangdela said fiercely, You filthy wh*re, I paid the money. I can play with you however I want!

Seeing the beautiful lady shiver in fear, Sangdela felt a sense of joy. But, just as he was about to penetrate the lady, cries of alarm came from outside the door. Following which, a flustered guard charged into the tent. Sir, the situation is bad. The old master wants you to put on your armor and come outside immediately!

Oh Yiblis, are you asking for death, charging in at this time?! In his fury, Sangdela struck at the guard with his whip, completely disregarding his words. The latter let out a pathetic wail, and he could only press on his wound and retreat.

In the tent, Sangdela was livid. Outside the tent, the troops were quickly gathering. Many of them were not expecting this and were unprepared, some barefoot, others still pulling up their pants. But they were all unwilling to display weakness, their fierce gazes staring straight at the large group in front of them.

A provocation? Or had a soldier ignited some sort of conflict?

Seeing the heavily armored group of warriors before them, Jaynowese felt a little depressed. He had just arrived at Wissen Town yesterday, and he had intended to start his secret mission today after a comfortable nap. He had not expected to meet with this kind of trouble the moment he woke up. What made him even angrier was that his good-for-nothing son was still lying in the embrace of a woman.

After making the decision, Yang Ling had led his guards over rapidly. In the group, the heavily armored barbarians took the front line, giant axes in hand. The elf warriors and other swordsmen were huddled tightly around Yang Ling. Finally, behind them were a large group of furious townspeople.

I am Jaynowese, captain of the Wind Troops. Is there some misunderstanding between us? Jaynowese spoke first after squinting his eyes and deliberating for a moment.

So, you are the leader of the troops, pardon the disrespect! Yang Ling had a cold smile. I came here to retrieve something!

Retrieve something? Could they be the landlords who have come to collect protection money?

Before coming to Wissen Town, Jaynowese had already heard that the town was occupied by a powerful family that committed all manners of atrocities, their main means of business being slave trade and abduction. He had wanted to pay them a visit to establish good terms with them, just in case he offended them in any way in the future. To think that they would meet face to face this soon.

The Wind Troops were famous within the Banto Empire. There were 250 elite warriors under Jaynowese, of which there were twenty high level Swordsmen and three Great Swordsmen. Furthermore, there were also two Great Spellcasters and five high level Spellcasters, their abilities strong.

Even though the other party had heavily armored barbarians and forest elves who were adept in archery, Jaynowese was not particularly worried. Seeing the messy backline of the other party, Jaynowese understood that they were only a bunch of rowdy townspeople. Even though his troops were not fully dressed, this landlord would not be a match for him even if they were to engage in battle.

He had once sought shelter in the house of a small noble as he was escorting a caravan of provisions to the capital. His son had become drunk and violated the beautiful daughter of the family. The noble, in his fury, gathered all of the warriors within his area of influence, a full thousand men. But the Wind Troops had easily defeated him in the end.

Later, the noble went to launch a complaint in the capital. The complaint was suppressed by the troops backstage, and he was instead branded as a criminal who harbored thieves and rapists. He was then reduced to a commoner, losing his land and treasures. His beautiful daughter was sold to a brothel in the capital.

With their powerful abilities, coupled with a figure of high authority backing them, the soldiers of the Wind Troops believed that they could have their way no matter which noble they came across. Facing a small hoodlum like Yang Ling, who could only have his way in Wissen Town, they did not pay much heed to him.

Because of the lack of information and the fact that they had just arrived at Wissen Town, the soldiers of the Wind Troops did not know that the Anca family in Wissen Town had been eradicated. If they had known the truth, if they had known of Yang Lings identity and abilities, they might have immediately gotten into formation and taken Yang Ling seriously.

After a nonchalant grunt, Jaynowese stared icily at the brazen Yang Ling. He slowly said, Oh, we have just arrived at Wissen Town. Might I ask what you wish to retrieve?

Its nothing much, just someones head! Seeing the other partys untidy attire and how they were belittling him, Yang Lings smile became even more radiant.

Someones head?

Jaynowese had thought that Yang Ling wished to extort him and ask for a large sum of money as a protection fee. But unexpectedly, the young man had asked for someones head. Could it be that some ignorant soldier had done something last night that should not see the light of day? Or could it be that the opposing faction of the person backing them had known of his secret mission and had sent these local hoodlums to cause trouble?

Oh Yiblis, they sure are tired of living!

Hmph, to disturb the old master this early in the morning and even ask for someones head. What a joke. Youre asking for death!

Jaynowese deliberated quietly, but the boorish soldiers started to erupt into a commotion, shouting at the top of their lungs. All these years, not a single soul had dared to be so brazen in front of them.

Not knowing the truth, Jaynowese had mistaken Yang Ling and his group for the Anca family. Even though he did not care too much about this family of pirates who only played on their advantage in numbers, Jaynowese did not want any extra trouble that might keep him from successfully completing his mission. He had hoped not to offend the family. But he did not expect the other party to be so brazen as to look for someones head this early in the morning.

Amidst the shouting of the Wind Troops, more and more adventurers and troops gathered to witness the commotion. Jaynowese, who had just arrived in Wissen Town, might not be clear of Yang Lings abilities, but the adventurers and troops who personally witnessed Yang Ling killing a Nine-headed Snake Monster understood perfectly. No one was clearer than them how terrifying an army of Magical Beasts was in a large scale battle.
